DRX 9000 Spinal Decompression

In our clinic, we have the DRX 9000 Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression Unit that actually REHYDRATES a herniated or bulging disc without surgery. It is called TRUE SPINAL DECOMPRESSION. The DRX9000 has been featured on National News Programs for the treatment of disc injuries, severe sciatica (leg pain), neck / arm / hand pain and degenerative disc disease. Some patients have disc problems that agitate the symptoms of fibromyalgia.

OXYGEN

Your brain and nervous system need TWO things to survive, FUEL AND ACTIVATION. Activation comes in the form of some of the treatments that are listed below, BUT fuel is in the form of OXYGEN and glucose. You get the glucose from the food that you eat which is why it is important to eat a healthy diet, but AS YOU AGE, YOUR ABILITY TO UTILIZE OXYGEN DECREASES. One of the treatments that we do in our office is to place some patients on oxygen to increase their body's fuel delivery system. It's like gas in the car... if you don't have any gas in the car, you are not going anywhere. If you don't have oxygen available for your brain and nervous system, most likely, no treatment will work!

UNILATERAL SOFT TISSUE TREATMENT

The right brain controls the left side of the body and the left brain controls the right side. If there is a decrease of firing or impulses in one side of the brain, I ONLY WANT TO ADJUST YOU ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE. Makes sense, doesn't it? WE ONLY USE VERY LIGHT SOFT TISSUE TECHNIQUES SO IT WON'T AGGRIVATE YOUR NERVOUS SYSTEM! Have you ever had an adjustment and felt worse afterward? It is because the adjustment was TOO MUCH for your nervous system. It over-stimulated your nervous system - or (get ready for another $3 term that neurologist's use) it exceeded metabolic capacity.

AUDITORY STIMULATION

Listening to sound in one ear will stimulate the opposite side of the brain and increase impulses to that side.

OLFACTORY STIMULATION

Smelling different smells will stimulate the brain. Your sight, sound, taste, and touch all travel through a sensory area of your brain called the thalamus. SMELL doesn't go through the thalamus. SMELL GOES DIRECTLY TO THE BRAIN.

CALORICS

Warm water in the ear will stimulate the semi-circular canals in your ear and fire the vestibular nerve back to your cerebellum. The cerebellum fires to the brain, the brain fires to the lower-brainstem (ponto-medullary region) and your lower-brainstem slows down the upper-brainstem (mesencephalon).

COLD LASER THERAPY

Everyone knows that light has healing properties. Our cold laser device sends light into the soft tissues at a wavelength of 830 nanometers to penetrate deeply into your soft tissues to dramatically speed up the healing process. It is non-heat producing and painless.

ATM2

The ATM2 is a therapeutic device used to activate the muscles in the low back. From the moment you started having back pain, your brain recognized that there is a problem. The brain shut down the small muscles in the back and the bigger larger muscle groups took over. Unfortunately, the small muscle groups have not worked properly from that moment forward for fear of becoming injured. The ATM2 works to get you into a pain free state while bending forward or leaning backward and then your brain can recognize what it is like to perform pain free range of motion. The brain reactivates the muscles and they start to work again. Golfers love this machine, because it improves functional range of motion!

Interactive Metronome

The Interactive Metronome works with rhythm and timing in the brain. The brain works off of rhythm and timing. In fact, every function involves rhythm, timing and synchronicity. The interactive metronome helps the brain focus and trains the part of the brain responsible for attention, focus and concentration. The interactive metronome is a valuable tool used in our Brain Based Rehabilitation program.
